How to prepare tabbouleh with white grapes and green pepper
- Put the couscous in a bowl and cover with 150 ml of boiling water in which you've dissolved 1/2 teaspoon of salt and ras-el-hanout. Add the juice from 1 lemon (about 3-4 tablespoons of juice) and olive oil. Mix and cover the bowl for 10 minutes. During this time the couscous will absorb all the water and soften.
- Prepare the remaining ingredients:
- cut the grapes in half; cut the cherry tomatoes in half
- finely chop the herbs
- dice the green pepper - Fluff the couscous with a fork until it separates and looks airy. Taste for salt and lemon juice. Add the zest from the lemon. Mix well.
- Add the grapes, tomatoes, peppers, pomegranate, and herbs on top. Mix gently and transfer the salad to a wide bowl.
